Rencontre avec Paul Lynch

This launch of Paul Lynch’s debut novel in French translation is a golden opportunity to meet a ground-breaking Irish author who has garnered rave reviews from his peers.

Born in Limerick in 1977, Paul Lynch grew up in Donegal and now lives in Dublin. A journalist and film critic, he writes regularly for the Sunday Times, the Irish Daily and the Irish Times. His novel Red Sky in Morning tells of a manhunt set in 1832 that leads the protagonists from the windswept bogs of County Donegal, across the Atlantic to the choleric work camps of the Pennsylvania railroad.

“This book makes the literary synapses spark and burn… a signal masterpiece.” Sebastian Barry

"A writer to watch out for" Colum McCann.
